Some CAT Queries Answered
How do I approach my mock tests? Which section do I attempt first? Also how do I tackle verbal? Please help. - Abhinav.
For the verbal part from what I mentioned earlier you would need to segregate your portion into question categories and look at your repetitive error sources in each question category.
I am a working executive in a PSU with an experience of 11 months till date and am continuing. But my engineering and 10+2 marks are an average 66 per cent and 75 per cent respectively. Do I stand a chance of making it to the IIMs? - Divya.
This is a question I am faced very often with. My only advice to students in general is: "You will be selected or rejected for what you can do in the future." The past is just seen as an indication of this. So if your past is strong, use it. If it is average (as in your case) you will just need to plan in such a way that they are forced to consider you. "If they don't open the door if you knock on it politely - you would need to break it down." Finally, yes you can make it!
What should be my last week's strategy for CAT 2010? - Anshu Kumar.
Focus on revising every question that you have solved while preparing for CAT. Do not do anything new as it is unlikely that you would be able to apply anything that you learn in the last week.
What are your tips for working professionals? Is it really important to join any coaching and please suggest me the best one in Delhi? - Anshu Kumar.
Working professionals should focus on trying to spend 20-25 hours per week preparing for the exam. Joining a regular coaching programme might not help you too much as you are likely to spend whatever free time you have in travelling to and fro in a place like Delhi.
I got stuck many a times while attempting RCs. It takes more time than needed. Please help me out. - Vardhan.
You should try to focus on developing your ability to comprehend English before working on problem-solving skills. Focus on improving your skills on comprehending sentences as advised earlier.
